Pursuant to the 2,000 yard pistol shot thread I was looking for that TV Western episode where the good guy carves a tree branch into a stock for his pistol and takes the bad guy out at rifle range.

Dunno why it came back with this Rifleman episode but here ya go. Lucas gets dragged behind a horse and has his rifle stolen, brings out a ruthless side not often seen.

Cool Bible reference too (couldn’t do that today).

The episode was directed by Sam Peckinpah hisself, who eleven years later bring us The Wild Bunch.
